What I am telling you is that you do not need to know to love, and it is right that you feel it all in any moment. And it is right that you see it through--that you are amazed, then curious, then belligerent, then heartbroken, then numb. You have the right to all of it.

In particular in how [Barack Obama] has directed what you could describe as patronizing remarks to African-American communities.

When nonviolence begins halfway through the war with the aggressor calling time out, it exposes itself as a ruse.

Part of that is ordinary African-Americans, you come out of your house and you see the conditions in your neighborhood and you see, folks in your neighborhood doing certain things that, are irresponsible. You know, the thing I always think about, you get up early in the morning to go to work and there's some dude outside drinking and you come home and the same dude is outside drinking hanging on the corner. And then this engenders a level of anger I think and a level of shame.

All you need to understand is that the officer carries with him the power of the American state and the weight of an American legacy, and they necessitate that of the bodies destroyed every year, some wild and disproportionate number of them will be black.

Any time you have, you know, upwards of 90 percent of a demographic voting against somebody, that's a statement.

Lot of folks like to mock dumb history, and pretend it's just a few idiots. Isn't. It's the country.
